I haven't seen many fan creations based on the StarTropics series, but I sure would like to see some. There are several kinds of fan creations to choose from: - Flash Videos (either using sprites or just drawing)
- YTMND pages (They can probably get downvoted easily)
- Fan Art (drawings, 3D models, 2D sprites, etc.)
- Fan Poems
- Fan Comics and Flukes (either usings sprites or just drawing)
- Fan Games (either use a Flash Studio, a Java creator, or another program)
- Fantography (shows your StarTropics collections, craftwork, cosplay costumes and item, etc.)
- MUGEN Projects (create and convert characters, stages, and other things from the StarTropics series)
- Music Videos (create and upload them to video websites like YouTube)
AND/OR
- Fan Music (Either a vocal song about anything StarTropics/Zoda's Revenge, music sheets for musical instruments, or remixes of the original music)
These are the only kinds of Fan Creations I could think of. In order to get more people interested in the StarTropics series, we'll have to do some Fan Creations.

There was a topic a while back that had links to a bunch of YTMND's devoted to StarTropics, and there was another one with a link to a StarTropics-based flash animation (although it ended in Mike getting crushed by a giant killer whale...)
Plus there's a bunch of people's sketches and artwork in the Sprites/Artwork areas.

And, of course, you have gellin's game that is in full swing of being created, and looks most promising as a great fan-based sequel to ST and ST2. ;D Also, there has been some fan music written and put online. I can't remember where the link is, but there has been some ST music put online, and linked to on the forum here...

Well there's already a bunch of stuff here on the forums from fan creations that we have done from drawings, to wallpapers, 3d models of Mike and weapons, and of course my StarTropics III game I'm creating with a level editor that allows you to play user created dungeons. Another thing you forgot were FanFics that a few people of written.
It seems like were doing a good job at creating fan based stuff. We just need a method of getting people interested in ST so they will actually come here and check it out.
EDIT: Maybe we need one centralized web page that people can go to access all of this user created stuff rather than having to seach through a bunch of topics to find everything.

Mitch should put all of this stuff on his site. It would also make the description of his site true "Information, downloads, and links for StarTropics".

I used to have the ripped music and the roms for download, waaayyyy back in the '98, but they've been gone for a long, long time. I can't push those copyrights!

Here's a YTMND I did a couple days ago: cr-stjones.ytmnd.com/I did a vocal version of "The Cactus Dance" from ST2ZR not too long ago. Unfortunately, my nerdy Cleveland accent embarrasses me greatly… Maybe I'll upload the instrumental version sometime. I've also completed an extremely huge project that I hope to contribute to StarTropics III. It's a secret… MUHUHAHAHAHA!

In the words of Squidward from "Spongebob..." "TEELLLL MEE THE SEEEECRET..." ;D Pretty please?? Hmmmm… If I told you guys what it is, you're probably going to want to see it right away. I'd rather have gellin be the first to see it, so maybe he can upload it for all of you. I'd upload it to my web site, but it's a pretty big file and I have very limited bandwidth. Ah, what the heck! I'll release it anyway. If too many people try to download it and it kills my bandwidth, I'll just take it down. XD Here's my secret project. Since Matt is remaking the graphics, I decided to remake the audio. Here it is. I redid all the sound effects and music in ST3. I also redid the music from the alien dungeons from StarTropics, in case Gellin decides to make alien dungeons possible in the game (hint, hint ;D). www.genericaonline.com/special/updated_audio.zip

In my eternal self-appointed crusade, I must point out that Fanfiction was not listed as one of the types of fan creations at the top of the page. Fan Comics were the closest. but for the record, a Fan Fiction section would be my suggestion. Although, since writing seems to be rare (perhaps people are simply unwilling to try and follow Erico's act), this suggestion will likely fall on deaf ears. I suppose I should resign myself to the fact that I will see StarTropics Fanfiction go vogue just about the day Nintendo releases a new StarTropics game. *sigh*

I would gladly contribute, but the closest things I have to "fan creations" are a video on YouTube of me commenting on the Nester reference in Chapter 5, and a photo of me sticking bananas in my ears.
Yes, I actually did it.
It was actually done as a part of a "dedication project", started by a friend on DeviantART, to people who like obscure video games. The goal was to pick an underrated/unknown game, and take a picture of yourself doing something from the game. I picked ST, and of course, I picked the infamous bananas pose.
